Hootsuite should be shut down.
Working with Trump’s gestapo is a bad look for Canada. Trump brought us within a hair’s width of WW3 a few days ago threatening to invade an allied country. Now these fucks are trying to make a buck supporting Trump’s fascist state apparatus? Disgusting.
Not to mention that Trump keeps directly threatening Canada and declaring his intention to annex (seize, invade, occupy) the country. To make propaganda for the US regime in this situation is treasonous.
What a wonderful alignment of state violence with corporate power.

I think that you know that is a deliberate misrepresentation of what I said, and anyone is welcome to view my post history and make their own determination. I stand by what I said, even if the context in which I said it could have been better. I wish you the best in your social media crusade against pedophilia, regardless of its effectiveness.
In the spirit of loaded questions and accusations: are you a fascist that supports the uniting of state violence and corporate power?

This is a strange venue in which to litigate this, but I’m grateful for the opportunity to clarify my views to an interested party.
I know that the Trump administration is fighting tooth and nail to hold the release of the Epstein files, in which he is almost certainly and heavily implicated, ostensibly because they deeply fear the evidence contained within beyond the 1% that has already been made public. Clearly, this is a bipartisan topic in an age of hyper-partisanship that matters to most of the electorate and creates responses from our representatives. If it ends up being the one that brings down Trump, and hopefully Trumpism along with it, then that would be a fantastic outcome. If it brings even a smattering of justice to the victims of sexual abuse named in the evidence, even better.
However, I’m extremely skeptical that it will. Beyond Trump, the implicated are an obscenely rich and horrifically powerful class with global reach that has long since been rendered almost immune to real prosecution. Furthermore, Trump has been proven to be more slippery than a mob boss when it comes to real legal consequences. Instead, I think his removal will come as a result of his death or extreme ill-health and dementia.
In the end, it is my belief that screaming about pedophiles on the Internet and alienating allies in the fight against fascism by accusing everyone who doesn’t agree of being a pedophile (as it was in my case) is at best ineffective and at worst, trivializes and dilutes the concept and stops progress and discussion cold. It’s on the level of Internet meme at this point.
Personally, I’m much more worried about the threat of nuclear fucking war from a potential full scale invasion of NATO allies and the destabilization of the international order. So, you’ll just have to excuse me when I say I think identifying Trump as a pedophile can take a back seat to that. We all have our pet peeves I suppose; you hate pedophiles, and I don’t want to be incinerated in nuclear holocaust. In the end, I think we can agree that removing Trump and his administration is a good way to make progress on both, whatever the method.
Sorry for denying you a Yes or No answer, but my views on the issue are more complex than that.
its all the executives, ceo, and other politicians in our countries hes protecting, plus all his billionaire donors.
the ones that are highly suspected already are MUSK, rfk jr, leslie wexner, GATES. Thiel is another one that should be on there too.

I can’t answer that question with a Yes or a No answer because I don’t really know, and I’m not willing to participate in a reductionist circle jerk that requires a one-word loyalty oath. I’m also not a psychologist, so my opinion on the matter wouldn’t hold much value.
Here is what I am fairly certain of: he will never see the inside of a courtroom let alone a cell for his crimes, and neither will anyone else implicated in the Epstein files above the level of Janitor. Instead, we should focus on the mass death, extreme suffering, and the collapse of democracy that follows Trumpism.
A white nationalist ICE is militarizing our cities today. Concentration Camps exist in America today. The plans to invade NATO allies are being drawn. Mass digital manipulation and the surveillance of regime opponents is happening now. Fascism is happening now.
The question is glib and inconsequential. Do you have any other questions?
Do you condemn Hamas?
DO YOU CONDEMN HAMAS?!
Same energy.

Their office is within walking distance of me. I should egg their window or something.
Egg is an odd way to spell molotov. Is that Canadian spelling?
As cold as it is they should consider that a friendly gesture.
Here in Vancouver we’ve had like a week of below zero temperatures this entire season. It’s been a very warm winter.
Why the fuck would a Canadian company need to “build trust” with ICE?
I think it refers to helping ICE “build trust” with the public - in other words, they want to be paid to produce propaganda for ICE.
We’re talking about a company of skids whose sole purpose in the market is to track you with invasive practices and enable SEO titheads to spam their BS across multiple social networks at once.
The bar for them is barely above the floor.
Uhhh… Canada? You don’t want this.
Hootsuite has always been a terrible company.
Dang it. Hootsuite used to be a decent marketing tool. When it was totally free, it was even good for those of us users who wanted a slimmed down version of our social media (Fb & Twitter in a single tab especially). It’s disappointing to see them fall so far.
That is not an effective way to “build trust.”
